        Yes it does but it depends on who the tax reduction is aimed at. The current plan is aimed at the hugest earners. Aim it for the middle.

        I can point to illinois as an example of a high tax/high benefit state doesn't work either.

        Then they do what they always do. The people at the top take home more than they deserve. The people at the bottom get screwed & make due.

        They tried it in the Reagan era, during the 2 Bush eras & the result was the poor got poorer, the rich richer. There was no down trickle

        Then the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Isn't that always the plan when Republicans are in control?

        Supply-side orthodoxy died under President GW Bush, did not work. We got higher deficits, debts, slow growth. We cannot afford that again.
